Redpill me on MLK
Ok first of all don’t you think it’s kinda creepy and culty that everyone calls him his full name- first, middle, and last? He’s not just “King” he’s “Martin Luther King.” And he’s been awarded extraordinary honors no other American has ever received- only four Americans had national monuments in the National Mall before MLK, and they were all presidents. And MLK also has a national holiday in his honor too- something only four other people: Jesus Christ, Christopher Columbus, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln had (before the latter two were rolled up into one on President’s Day). A majority of the national holidays in the US aren’t even about a single individual. So the central religious figure for the vast majority of Americans, the explorer who discovered the continent we live on, and two of our greatest presidents were given special days of remembrance, all long after they died and the nation recognized their role in shaping our history… and now this civil rights activist comes along within living memory and gets his own national holiday too? One that Congress seemed oddly jumpy to create? Just something to think about.
Anyway, MLK was far from what most people know him as- that gentle christian pastor who so peacefully and nonviolently advocated for the end of segregation. In reality, MLK was a plagiarist, an adulterer, a communist, and an antiwhite racist who was NOT above using violence to achieve his goals.
A lot of people like to attack the FBI for wiretapping King and sending him threats and stuff, but by the end of this post you might view it in a different light. J. Edgar Hoover once remarked that King was “the most notorious liar in the country.” And as you’re about to see, he was right.
So, let’s start with plagiarism. King was a habitual plagiarist and he started early. He studied at Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester, PA, and received a bachelor’s degree in 1951. Many of the papers he wrote at the seminary contained material lifted verbatim from published sources without any acknowledgement.
Stanford University started a project in 1984 to publish all of King’s papers and they tracked down each and every one of the sources King used and concluded his writings were “tragically flawed by numerous instances of plagiarism.” This wasn’t like, a sentence or two hoisted out of a textbook. In one paper he “wrote” there was blatant plagiarism in 20 of the 24 paragraphs. There’s been some amusing descriptions of his creative sterility, like this one:
King’s plagiarisms are easy to detect because their style rises above the level of his pedestrian student prose. In general, if the sentences are eloquent, witty, insightful, or pithy, or contain allusions, analogies, metaphors, or similes, it is safe to assume that the section has been purloined.
He also plagiarized from himself repeatedly, recycling old papers for different courses/essays. When he was getting his PhD at Boston University, King plagiarized over a third of his 343 page dissertation- 45% of the first half, 21% of the second half, from another university student named Jack Boozer. The university only admitted this in 1991 after an investigative committee. And this was probably a sympathetic committee, so it’s entirely possible he actually stole much more than that and they were just going easy on him.
He continued plagiarizing after he was out of college too. His Nobel Prize lecture was stolen from works by a minister in Florida named J. Wallace Hamilton and US Senator Harris Wofford. In one sermon where he famously prophesied his own martyrdom… yeah that was lifted from a methodist minister. Heck, some of the most famous parts of the ‘I Have A Dream’ speech were stolen from an address to the Republican National Convention in 1952 by a black preacher named Archibald Carey. He didn’t even write most of his speeches, in fact the ‘I Have A Dream’ speech was actually mostly written by Stanley Levison and Clarence Jones.
Not that any of this is really surprising, because King was very dumb. On his Graduate Record Exam, King “scored in the second-lowest quartile in English and vocabulary, in the lowest ten percent in quantitative analysis, and in the lowest third on his advanced test in philosophy.” Stanley Levison, King’s closest adviser, also remarked that “King is such a slow thinker he is usually not prepared to say anything without help from someone.”
Definitely university-grade material right there.
Now that we’ve gotten the little things out of the way we can get down to the brass tacks- King openly hated white people. He said it flat out, he thought the “vast majority of white Americans are racist” and refused to share power. HIs grand solution was to redistribute wealth and power via reparations for slavery, and racial quotas. So basically modern America.
Quote: “No amount of gold could provide an adequate compensation for the exploitation and humiliation of the Negro in America down through the centuries. Not all the wealth of this affluent society could meet the bill. Yet a price can be placed on unpaid wages… . The payment should be in the form of a massive program by the government of special, compensatory measures which could be regarded as a settlement … Moral justification for such measures for Negroes is rooted in the robberies inherent in the institution of slavery.”
A lot of “civic nationalists” praise MLK as some amazing advocate for color blindness and moving beyond racial differences, “content of their character” and all that crap, but the truth of the matter is that King wanted racial quotas for blacks: “[I]f a city has a 30 percent Negro population, then it is logical to assume that Negroes should have at least 30 percent of the jobs in any particular company, and jobs in all categories rather than only in menial areas.”
He got his wish. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was probably King’s main accomplishment- when it was signed he stood directly beyond President Johnson as a guest of honor. The Act created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, monitoring hiring practices and enforcing those blatant racial preferences in hiring that King wanted so badly.
King, like all these agitators past and present, believed that failure by blacks to achieve what whites did with ease could only be explained by white oppression. King said: “I think we have to honestly admit that the problems in the world today, as they relate to the question of race, must be blamed on the whole doctrine of white supremacy, the whole doctrine of racism, and these doctrines came into being through the white race and the exploitation of the colored peoples of the world.”
King predicted that “if the white world” does not stop this racism and oppression, “then we can end up in the world with a kind of race war.”
When questioned about potential communist activity in the civil rights movement, MLK famously responded: “There are as many Communists in this freedom movement as there are Eskimos in Florida.” This was a hideous fib, to put it lightly.
Publicly, King called for a kind of synthesis between capitalism and communism, like third positionism or something I guess. But in private he was absolutely a Marxist. Here’s a recounting by C.L.R. James, a Marxist intellectual, of a conversation he had with King: ”I don’t say such things from the pulpit, James, but that is what I really believe.’… King wanted me to know that he understood and accepted, and in fact agreed with, the ideas that I was putting forward–ideas which were fundamentally Marxist-Leninist… . I saw him as a man whose ideas were as advanced as any of us on the Left, but who, as he actually said to me, could not say such things from the pulpit… . King was a man with clear ideas, but whose position as a churchman, etc. imposed on him the necessity of reserve.” J. Pius Barbour, a close friend of King’s at seminary, agreed that he “was economically a Marxist.”
In fact, some of King’s closest friends and advisers were openly communists. The most important of these was Stanley Levison, who was King’s number one adviser, who organized fundraisers for King, counseled him on political strategy, wrote fundraising letters and many of King’s speeches, edited parts of his books, advised him on his first major national address, and coached King on how to answer questions from the media. Levison was “directly involved in the Communist Party’s most sensitive financial dealings,” and was a member of CPUSA’s inner circle. Levison was also “one of the two top financiers” of the CPUSA, which also received a million dollars a year from the Soviet Union, and he had close contact with KGB operatives in the UN. and direct financial links back to the Soviet Union. Coretta Scott King said of Levison that he was “[a]lways working in the background, his contribution has been indispensable,” and King biographer David Garrow says the association with Levison was “without a doubt King’s closest friendship with a white person.”
Hunter Pitts O’Dell was another prominent CPUSA member who worked for King, in fact O’Dell was elected to the governing body of CPUSA in 1959. King did eventually have to publicly disavow him under immense pressure, but they remained in close, unofficial contact after O’Dell was officially out of the organization up until King’s death.
And there were many, many other communist who worked closely with King. King also “associated and cooperated with a number of groups known to be CPUSA front organizations or to be heavily penetrated and influenced by members of the Communist Party–for example, the Southern Conference Educational Fund; Committee to Secure Justice for Morton Sobell; the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America; the National Lawyers Guild; and the Highlander Folk School.”
And King was well aware of all of this. JFK personally and explicitly advised King against his “shocking association with Stanley Levison,” and in one private meeting with King in the White House Rose Garden, Kennedy named O’Dell and Levison and said to King “They’re communists. You’ve got to get rid of them.” King didn’t. He supported them. And he relied on them for everything- his speechwriting, fundraising, raising public awareness. It’s uncomfortable for people to accept but the inescapable conclusion is that the entire Civil Rights movement was actually a communist plot against the US.
These communist connections are the reason why the FBI wiretapped King. Not because they hated civil rights, but because King was actively in the thralls of a foreign power. A very accomplished FBI agent named Jack Childs stated in a 1960 report that the CPUSA “feels that it is definitely to the Party’s advantage to assign outstanding Party members to work with the [Martin] Luther King group. CP policy at the moment is to concentrate upon Martin Luther King.”
Congressman John M. Ashbrook, a ranking member of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, had this to say: “King has consistently worked with Communists and has helped give them a respectability they do not deserve. I believe he has done more for the Communist Party than any other person of this decade.”
King didn’t just promote communist goals with civil rights tho- he actively spoke out in support of North Vietnam and against the US. In his 1967 speech “Beyond Vietnam- A Time to Break Silence,” delivered at a notoriously left wing church in NYC, King denounced America as "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today — my own government,“ and as a killer of women and children. The whole speech was pure propaganda on behalf of North Vietnamese communists, dressed up as an “anti-war” speech on behalf of “peace” in Vietnam. The reality is that King wasn’t opposing the war, he was supporting the war aims of the North Vietnamese, and the triumph of communism in Vietnam- which, y’know, comes with a lot of violence and dead women and children.
The whole speech was a complete projection by the communists; the communists were the ones who sought to enslave the entire world and had already subjugated over a third of it. It was the communists who were routinely murdering women and children in South Vietnam, not the US. The speech was so awful and traitorous that many in the White House (correctly) thought that King had “thrown in with the commies.” Johnson administration aide Harry McPherson stated that King was now “the crown prince of the VIetniks.” Even Life Magazine attacked him viciously, labeling the speech “demagogic slander that sounded like a script for Radio Hanoi.”
King’s speech was full of little communist euphemisms, like describing state confiscation of all private land by communists as “land reform,” and totalitarian communist dictatorship as “independence.” The so-called “peace movement” King championed even hijacked the “V” for victory symbol that was used so often in World War II. But it makes no logical sense that a “V” for victory can stand for “P” for peace. Then you realize what these “peace” activists actually meant and it all makes sense- they did support victory… for the communists.
Related to his support for incredibly violent communists, King himself was actually not a pacifist and was perfectly willing to use violence as a lever to get what he wanted. King met with black nationalists frequently and solicited their support, including Stokely Carmichael, head of the extremist black nationals organization Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (which wasn’t nonviolent at all, it was just a gimmick). Carmichael endorsed King’s objectives and stated he would not oppose King’s plans for nonviolence. King was also buddies with Malcolm X, although not as close.
King was perfectly aware of the possibility of violence breaking out at any moment. One his aides stated flatly to the press “jail will be the safest place in Washington this spring!” King- or King’s handlers, rather- were very knowingly planning on using the possibility of violence as a lever to pressure Congress into acting, warning them that the Poor People’s March was the last chance for peaceful change in the US with respect to civil rights.
This whole coordination of nonviolent and violent civil rights agitators just lends further credence to the theory that the nonviolence movement, led by people like King and Ralph Abernathy and ilk, and the black nationalist movement, led by Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael and ilk, was really just an elaborate good cop/bad cop routine to extort concessions from America to blacks.
Not surprising since he was a communist, but he wasn’t a Christian either. This might seem completely wrong because I mean, he studied theology right? He was REVEREND Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for crying out loud! Nope, he denied some of the core, fundamental doctrines of Christianity.
He said flat-out that “Jesus was by no means omniscient” and that the “orthodox view of the divinity of Christ is in my mind quite readily denied.” And he “found wanting” and “shallow to convince any objective thinker” the evidence for the Virgin Birth and Christ’s Resurrection, and said we should “strip them of their literal interpretation.” On the Resurrection, King believed that early Christian leaders just made it up whole-cloth.
Basically, King was of the opinion that Jesus was a wise man, but not the Son of God, and people only called Jesus divine bc they “found God in him.” Which flies in the face of everything Christians believe.
He was also a fierce supporter of birth control and abortion, even going so far as to praise Margaret Sanger for starting “a movement which is obeying a higher law to preserve human life under humane conditions.” He even supported the 1962 Supreme Court decision banning public school prayer because it was necessary for a “pluralistic society.” Some reverend, huh?
His contempt for Christianity flows right into the next thing I want to talk about- all the adultery. King was a lecherous creep. Michael Eric Dyson, a professor of sociology at Georgetown University who has written a bunch of books about MLK, has this to say: “King’s habits of sexual adventure had been well established by the time he was married.”
This was a guy who would preach to you about God’s will during the day (while not actually believing in it) and then go home with women from the audience to have sex with. One night in 1964, an FBI bug in King’s home recorded him shouting above all the others “I’m f*cking for God!”
He was extremely foulmouthed in private too. On one FBI recording, King said to his second-in-command Ralph Abernathy “Come on over here, you big black motherf*cker and let me suck your d*ck.” FBI sources also report that while King watched a televised rerun of the Kennedy funeral, when Jacqueline Kennedy knelt with her children and prayed at her dead husband’s coffin, King sneered “Look at her. Sucking him off one last time.”
Not surprisingly given the above remarks, Jacqueline Kennedy hated him. She was disgusted by everything about king King and told historian Arthur Schlesinger that he was a “phony” who was drunk at her husband’s funeral and made inappropriate jokes mocking the service. Jackie said that she couldn’t even look at pictures of King without thinking “that man’s terrible.”
He frequently had sex with both single and married women, well after he himself was married. King, in his own words, justified it like this: “I’m away from home twenty-five to twenty-seven days a month. F*cking’s a form of anxiety reduction.” He had a ton of one-night stands and sex with other women was “a commonplace of King’s travels,” according to King biographer David Garrow. According to FBI files just released in November 2017 he also had at least four mistresses and an illegitimate child.
Heck, the NIGHT BEFORE HE DIED he had TWO adulterous affairs, one at a woman’s house and the second in the hotel room of a member of the Kentucky state legislature named Georgia Davis Powers. There was also a third woman who was looking for him that night but he wasn’t there. The next morning when they met she got angry at him and King “lost his temper” and “knocked her across the bed… She leapt up to fight back, and for a moment they were engaged in a full-blown fight, with [King] clearly winning.” And then just a few hours later (and a few hours before he died), King had a luncheon discussing the importance of nonviolence for the movement. So not only was he an adulterer, but he was abusive to his trysts as well. The source for these claims is Ralph Abernathy, King’s best friend and second-in-command who took over the SCLC after King died.
So how did he get away with all this? Well, he had elite support. King succeeded because all the institutions wanted him to succeed. He succeeded because he had backing from out-and-out communists and traitorous journalists and academics with not-so-hidden communist sympathies. Aside from taking some flak when he was too open about his communist leanings, the press fully supported him all the way to Washington.
There’s way more I could talk about (like how he hated NASA, something that Ralph Abernathy continued up to and beyond the Apollo 11 launch) and there’s a lot more dirt on him that we DON’T know about because his full FBI file is still sealed until 2027 (but you can bet your butt there’ll be an extension because the FBI really doesn’t want us to know what other depravities King was up to), but this post is already running a mile long and I don’t want to annoy my followers. He was a garbage person, basically, a “dime a dozen black preacher who wanted gibs, who was just smart enough to read speeches written by men smarter than him.”
Happy Martin Luther King Day :)
